Escape Room is a psychological thriller about six strangers who find themselves in circumstances beyond their control and must use their wits to find the clues or die.

Watched Escape Room by myself at GV Plaza earlier this week. Being a fan of such reality game, I decided to catch this show. This film had a focused story-line which was fast-paced and engaging.

Through this game, the six participants personality, strength and weakness are revealed. It was an interesting sight to see them strangers working together to solve the puzzle. The many intense moments definitely kept me at the edge of the seat as well. A pity that some may appear rather vague and "too good to be true".

If you are a genre of such a movie, remember to purchase a ticket or two!

K was abandoned by his mother after the death of his father, while Cream lost her entire family in a traffic accident. Sharing similar circumstances, the two become best friends and come to share a home. Diagnosed with terminal illness, K has never confessed his love for Cream. He wants to make sure she is settled down and happy before his time runs out.

Recently, watched 比悲傷更悲傷的故事 More Than Blue with Jaslin and Ting Feng at AMK Hub Cathay Cineplexes.

Personally, this romance film had a focused story-line. Though the plot itself emphasise on a love relationship between K and Cream, the movie itself was engaging and touching. The show would definitely trigger those nostalgic memories in high school too.

You can expect a number of emotional scenes which was nicely depicted. Do remember to bring some packet of tissue as tears may naturally roll down from your eyes. The unexpected twist towards the finale definitely heightened the show. Can you imagine? My church mentee who does not normally watch a romance film, also enjoy it.

You may wish to consider watching this movie before it goes off-screen!

Robin of Loxley (Taron Egerton) a war-hardened Crusader and his Moorish commander (Jamie Foxx) mount an audacious revolt against the corrupt English crown in a thrilling action-adventure packed with gritty battlefield exploits, mind-blowing fight choreography, and a timeless romance.

Watched Robin Hood with Ting Feng earlier on at GV Bedok.

Personally, I felt that the show was engaging and compact as a whole. The story build up may appear rather slow-pace but somewhat, it gradually got better with a conducive plot. The battle between the Christians and the Muslims in Arabia somewhat sets a tone to its story-line.

An excitement for me to view its well-planned strategies for a perfect counter-attack. There are many intense moment which kept me at the edge of my seat. Not to miss out those fight choreography scenes that are nicely depicted as well.

The finale may leave you nowhere, but somewhat you will be able to grasp what is going to happen next. I am expecting a sequel for sure!

A woman is falsely accuse of killing her daughter. She escapes from prison. To reveal the truth about her daughter’s death, she solves cases around her.

I had just completed watching this Korean drama - Ms. Ma, Nemesis. It was a surprise to me when the entire series ended at episode 32. All along, I thought that it had a total of 40 episodes.

The introductory was nicely developed with a mystery element that was captivating and suspenseful. Though a slow progression in its plot, the casts whom had secret agenda actually made this already good drama, an interesting one.

The "gathering of evidence and revealing of hidden truth" moment was definitely epic and kept me at the edge of my seat. Through this film, it highlighted about moral values and being ethical as a person. No doubt, you "could be somebody up there" but if you don't possess the right behaviour, the things you previously had would gradually fade.

Just finished watching this channel 8 series - 29th February 229 明天见. I decided to catch it because the trailer presented on television caught my attention. If I am not wrong, this show resembles a movie title - Before I fall with a similiar story-line.

Personally, I thought that the series had a refreshing plot with a good suspense. The heart-warming scenes presented are commendable too. It educated viewers to cherish your family and never to take them for granted. It also highlighted viwers to forgive your loved ones in whatever circumstances.

Please do follow this drama closely else it may just appear repetitive without any progression. Though the finale was somewhat predictable; it contained certain unexpected element which was commendable.

Oh well, the show might not seems to be logical but trust me, watch it with an open-mind. You would definitely learn something from it.

The story follows native New Yorker Rachel Chu as she accompanies her longtime boyfriend, Nick Young , to his best friend’s wedding in Singapore. Excited about visiting Asia for the first time but nervous about meeting Nick’s family, Rachel is unprepared to learn that Nick has neglected to mention a few key details about his life.

Personally, I felt that this film had a focused story-line but somewhat, predictable. Initially, it may appear rather slow-paced but thankfully, the progression gradually got better. It was a pity that the plot was weak without substantial content.

The main highlight was on these 2 characters - Rachel Chu & Nick Young about their romance relationship. Even when circumstances may not appear positively for Rachel Chu, I was totally impressed by her determination and courage.

Honestly, this movie did not work well for me. With the many recommendation, I was obviously expecting it to be be above average but however, it was just an average show.

I had just completed watching this Korean drama - Are You Human, Too?

Personally, the story itself was refreshing and interesting on its own. It had a smart plot which was captivating and kept me in great suspense. The progression of each episode got better with the secret agenda among the casts, which made this already good drama a more convincing one. Not to forget, the many touching, intense and thrilling moments which hightened the show.

This drama revolved around temptations and being revengeful. On the other hand, it educated viewers to let go of grudges and learn to forgive, in order to feel peace and happy. It reminded me about the importance of kinship and also to cherish the people around me. Most importantly, not to boast but be humble.

This series reminded me of the show - W – Two Worlds . If you enjoy that show, you may wish to give this drama a try! Kudos to Seo Kang-joon acting capabilities. A versatile actor indeed! Not to leave out, the many other casts as well. Good job!
